DOCT. VI. The confirmation of the foregoing doctrine.
FRom whence also we under∣stand, how it comes to passe, that, whereas the Sonne is no lesse Almightie then the Father, and so in like manner the holy Ghost; yet we say not that there are three Almigh∣ties;* 1.1 but confesse with Athanasius, and the whole Church, that there is onely one Almightie: because they have all one and the same essence. Seeing then that no thing created hath one and the same essence with God; but another and that farre di∣verse: How can any created thing be made Almightie? Or, if any thing by the communication of Gods Al∣mightie power could be made Al∣mightie; it must needs follow that there are more Almighties then one: which we count it blasphemie once to affirme.
